Bluey celebrates 'incredible' achievement as the Aussie kid's series continues to take the US by storm

As a dedicated follower of children’s entertainment and having grown up with Australian classics like The Wiggles and Bananas in Pyjamas, I must say it brings me immense pride to witness Bluey’s global success. It’s truly heartwarming to see a show that stays so true to its roots and resonates with audiences across the globe, from the land down under to the great American heartland.


The beloved Australian kids’ show Bluey notched a significant accomplishment in 2024, making it the most-watched TV series on streaming platforms throughout America.

This year, it’s been reported by Nielsen Media Research that US audiences have collectively spent an impressive 35 billion minutes watching the globally recognized ABC Kids series.

On Tuesday, Daley Pearson, the executive producer, expressed his joy over the worldwide triumph of his television show via social media platforms.

In a stunning turn of events, Bluey has become the top-watched TV show in America for the year 2024! Can you believe it? An astounding 35 billion minutes were spent watching this series this year, according to Pearson’s statement.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I’m thrilled to share that my recent post received a heartwarming comment from the esteemed US Embassy in Australia. They commended my team on our triumph by saying, “Our children are smitten with it (and now use the term ‘dunny’)! Congratulations!” It’s moments like these that make sharing knowledge and experiences so rewarding.

In America, where Bluey can be streamed, it managed to outperform its competitors such as House of the Dragon, Grey’s Anatomy, and Family Guy by a slim margin.

In 2023, the popular Australian animated series ranked as the second most-watched show in the U.S., trailing slightly behind the legal drama “Suits.

According to recent accounts, children in the U.S. are adopting a distinctly Australian accent when they watch and imitate the characters from Bluey, a popular show about a heartwarming blue heeler family.

The animated series gained immense popularity in America following its debut on Disney Channel, Disney Junior, and Disney+ in September 2019.

2020 saw The New York Times refer to the show as a significant cultural export comparable to “The Wiggles,” the iconic Australian children’s music group that holds great fame worldwide.

The cartoon stays true to its true-blue roots and is packed with ‘g’day’ greetings and unmistakably Aussie phrases like ‘show us your thongs, muffin!’

Simultaneously, Bluey is leading the pack on Australian television, breaking audience records for both ABC and ABC Iview.
